DENAIR (CBS13) – The family of a Denair man and two young boys who died in a weekend house fire say he tried to save those young boys right up until that fire took their lives.
Amber Ortega remembers her younger brother, Sergio Inostros, 25, as having the biggest heart.
She says Sergio was shielding his kids, Mason, 8, and Bennet, 3, when a fire tore apart their home. She says their bodies were found together.
“He’s not just a story, he’s not just a tragedy,” said Ortega.
Sergio "JR" Inostros, 25, his 3-year-old son named Bennet, and his girlfriend's 8-year-old son, Mason Van Winkle, were killed when flames tore through the house they shared on Fresno Avenue, Maria Uballe, a relative told KCRA 3.
